Answer

Information about Oligopeptide-10 (Pep®-Acne)

Thank you for your interest in ingredients for acne treatment and for sharing the research you found on Oligopeptide-10. It is indeed an interesting ingredient.

We do have Oligopeptide-10 available under the name Pep®-Acne (Oligopeptide-10 Anti-microbial Peptide).

Pep®-Acne is a peptide that acts against bacteria by binding to the lipoteichnoic acids (LPS) of bacteria, causing an osmotic imbalance that prevents bacteria from surviving. This mechanism helps prevent bacteria from developing resistance.

It is suitable for use in products for controlling or treating acne.

  • Usage Rate: 5%
  • Mixing Method: Soluble directly in water. Avoid heat.
  • Characteristics: Clear liquid
  • Solubility: Water soluble

It is recommended to use Pep®-Acne with Salicylic Acid. This combination can help reduce the required usage rate of Salicylic Acid, potentially minimizing skin irritation.

We hope this information is helpful!
